[resolved] Layer transform presents...

Hello,

I am working in Arena and need all new clips I bring into layers to have the same exact global settings or properties as the previous clip on the layer. I love the fact that I can call up effects presets I have saved and apply them to the next clip but it seems that I dont have this option in the transform section.

I am working with many layers that need to remain in the same position for my show and I have spent quite some time getting them cropped, masked and anchored into precise positioning.

Do I have to pre set everything up in the transform positioning for each and every clip in my layers or is there a way to copy ALL my settings to the next clip in layer order?

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Todd

I do believe I asked the very same question in October, and the clever folks at Resolume came up with this answer :)

In this particular case, I'm wondering why the transform controls on the layer level are not an option?

For me the layer is not an option (at all most of the time) because I would need the layer options per deck. Right now if I switch decks, the presets from deck A make no sense if they are applied to deck B, same with the layer names.

On the other hand I see that a single fx-layer for all decks makes sense e.g. for transitions. ;)
